Darfur Problem.?

Question

I have no idea what Darfur is about...or what genocide means.

Does genocide mean mass murder?

I really want to help...but I don't know WHAT exactly I'm helping.

Please, can you tell me what Darfur is and what it is about?

Thank you SO much!!

Answer 1

Its called a civil war in general that has gotten out of hand.

Answer 2

Muslim Arabs in Sudan are slaughter animist and christian blacks.  They get away with it because the liberal media is too busy criticizing the USA instead of pressuring China who support the brutal regimes in Sudan, Myanmar, Zimbabwe, Venezuela and Iran, from changing its evil ways.

Answer 3

It is a shame that so few have so much power over so many! All this is for money! Sad but true! Darfar was a colony of one of the big superpowers that eventually got its independence.

Since then these rogue political groups have taken charge and eliminated all opposition.

The United Nations have little or no influence in the world and should end its role as a peacekeeper or do something about violence in the world. Unfortunately, the nations that control this body cannot ever reach an agreement. Thus, the people caught in the middle constantly suffer.

As far as finding out a more detailed fact finding about Darfur the other posters have provided you with good sources of information.

Answer 4

Basically black muslims killing non black muslims for land and oil money. That region is one of the biggest providers of oil for the Chinese.

Although other nations have appealed to the chinese to help stop the killings since they have so much influence. They don't care. These people (chinese) have no shame. If they want something they get it and never think about the consquences.

Answer 5

Darfur is a area in Sudan where a genocide is occuring..the government is involved in this and they are trying to ethnic clense a certain group..men are being killed, women raped.. and all sorts of atrocities are occuring in that area..The world is doing very little to prevent this.. and al bashir the president of that area.. is not allowing th U.N to enter into darfur.. so basically the samething is happening that happened before.. when Hitler tried to ethnic clense the jews..

Answer 6

Very complicated overall, but it can be simplified down.

I know it's not a direct answer, but start with :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darfur  

(for general background info),  then go to this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darfur_Conf...

for specifics on the conflict.

Everything is there and well laid.

No need for me to copy it here...

And it is very neutral (compared to other sources).

So you can make your own opinion after.

Congratulations for wanting to get involved and good luck!

Answer 7

I am surprised that Dafur is receiving so little attention in the news. People know about it but it's like no one cares.I really think that is strange

Answer 8

Darfur is having a land problem. The Muslim black people want to steal the land of the Christian black people. So they are killing them and chasing them off the land. Genocide means one group killing another group.
